Dr Marino Ortolani was an Italian pediatrician who developed a test for hip instability in the infant (1936) and then promoted early diagnosis of this condition to the medical community. He studied the pathoanatomy of hip instability in the 1940s. He wrote his textbook in 1948 and in 1952 he produced a movie about the examination and treatment of hip dysplasia which was translated into many languages to promote early diagnosis and treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). In his career, he wrote a monograph and 31 articles on the subject of hip dysplasia and besides his classic test he developed various braces to treat the infants with hip instability. A remarkable achievement for this early clinician-scientist.
马里诺·奥尔托拉尼医生是一位意大利儿科医生,他在1936年研发了一项针对婴儿髋关节不稳定的检查方法,随后向医学界推广了这种病症的早期诊断。他在20世纪40年代研究了髋关节不稳定的病理解剖学。1948年他撰写了教科书,1952年制作了一部关于髋关节发育不良检查与治疗的影片,该影片被翻译成多种语言,以促进对发育性髋关节发育不良(DDH)的早期诊断和治疗。在他的职业生涯中,他撰写了一本关于髋关节发育不良主题的专著和31篇文章,除了他的经典检查方法外,他还研发了各种支具来治疗髋关节不稳定的婴儿。对于这位早期的临床科学家来说,这是一项了不起的成就。
